[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here -- yes, I know what the term means. Thank you PPs who stated that your moms used the phrase. I *NEVER* heard it in a home situation, growing up. I guess my mom said "I'm not going to make two meals" but we didn't use the term "short order cook". My dad, I remember every weekend, actually being a short order cook for us! He would say, "Who wants eggs? Would you like them poached or scrambled? Do you want bacon or sausage?" and then cook what we wanted! Both days he did that! (But he didn't call it short order cooking.) Again, I ask -- does anyone use it, in the home (i.e. not talking about in an ad looking for an actual short order cook!), in a positive manner? As in, "Can I short order cook something for you?" [/quote] It's a noun, not a verb, so I wouldnt say "can I short order cook this for you?" [/quote]
